Answer:
dy/dx = -b/a cot α
Step-by-step explanation:
x² / a² + y² / b² = 1
Take derivative with respect to x.
2x / a² + 2y / b² dy/dx = 0
2y / b² dy/dx = -2x / a²
dy/dx = -b²x / (a²y)
Substitute:
dy/dx = -b²a cos α / (a²b sin α)
dy/dx = -b cos α / (a sin α)
dy/dx = -b/a cot α
Answer:
<em>The actual width of the hair is 20 / 150 = 0.13 mm</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Scaling</u>
Objects can be represented in a reduced or augmented size by using scaling which is basically multiplying or dividing by a constant factor. We use scaling in several applications of real-life.
The human hair is magnified 150 times by a micro-phtograph. This is the scale factor.
The hair can be seen 2 cm wide in the photograph.
Converting to millimeters, 2 cm = 2*10 = 20 millimeters.
The actual width of the hair is 20 / 150 = 0.13 mm
The average rate of change between March 15 and June 15 will be given by:
(82.4-66.8)/(6-3)
=15.6/3
=5.2° F per month
Answer: C
You should do 9/4 divided by 3/8
No your friend I’d not correct although the slope is 4, the y-intercept is -3 because of the minus 3 in the equation.
